Who's the man?
As you all know this page is for my honey...Vanilla. For
you who do not know what VIP means, it means the "Vanilla Ice Posse". If you
would like to join the many people who have already signed and are apart of the posse,
click on Vanilla Ice. (up there^) Yer name will be added to the list, which people can
access, so if you don't want it known, tell me.
The results will be posted at different points of the
month...(whenever i'm bored).
